Mutter Courage und ihre Kinder

In the organizer's words:

Anna Fierling travels through a devastated and traumatized Europe during the Thirty Years' War. In a time when ideologies provide the cover for complete dehumanization, she moves from theater of war to theater of war as a sutler. Her business sense is her drive, her business model is hardship and death. Fierling's plan to lead her children through the destruction unscathed is bound to fail grandly. The "war trilogy" conceived by director Oliver Frljić, found its prelude with Danton's Death / Iphigenia. With an all-female cast, he asked about victimhood and role models. This is where the second part now begins, in order to take a look at cross-connections between war, fascism and capitalism.
